In collaboration with world-renowned chef Massimo Bottura and his team from Osteria Francescana, this year’s Once Upon a Kitchen united Bottura with globally recognized Peruvian chef Virgilio Martínez of Central Restaurante – voted the World’s Best Restaurant in 2023. Known for his trailblazing multidisciplinary approach to fine dining, incorporating Peru’s biodiversity and rich culture into his cuisine, Martínez fused his style and flavors with Bottura’s iconic Italian cuisine.

GR8 welcomes you to Piedmont! Italy's second-largest region is arguably its most elegant: a purveyor of slow food and fine wine, regal palazzi and an atmosphere that is superficially more français than Italian. But dig deeper and you will discover that Piedmont has 'Made in Italy' written all over it. Here the countryside is gentle, drawn by the most precious vineyards of Italy, cradles of great wines. And then the old roads built in the middle ages , the hilltop villages, the castles, the eno-gastronomic tradition, the sinuous horizons. These are the Langhe, part of the UNESCO World Heritage, magical lands in the hills embraced by the Alps and the nearby Ligurian Sea.
